Edit Time of Daily Reset of Stats / Add Nightshift

Hi, It would be great if users could change the daily reset of stats to a different hour. We night owls who go sleep late after midnight now have to calculate the differences in our heads and that's not ideal. Thanks!

To be able to set the time that your data is tracked without it being reset at midnight. So for example the "day" it would track would be 7pm on Feb 23rd to 9am on Feb 24th. Than the sleep time habits tracked would be 9am on Feb 24th to 7pm on Feb 24th.

2023 and still nothing planned for this.  Why is it so hard to just add a switch to a nightshift mode when so many people around the world have to work nights?  Not being able to even change the activity time window manually to my actual active hours is just terrible design.  This is not the 14th century where most people work according to the sun.  People have to work nights to keep the world running and people safe.

I don't see the point in paying for premium once the free trial runs out if things don't change and I certainly will not buy anything else from fitbit until this is fixed.  Though considering today I have seen threads with hundreds of comments and over a thousand votes dating back 6 years or more I shan't hold my breath.

I work second shift. I don't like that I can't meet my goals and close rings because I start work at a different time than everyone else. I like the Fitbit app but I feel like in 2023 we ought to be able to have a way to adjust active hours by now.

In addition to morning and afternoon exercise, I occasionally walk late at night but do not return home until 12:30 or 1 AM before going to bed. The app starts the new day at exactly 12 AM though, so the data (steps, calories etc) gets split between two days. This also affects the data for the next day after waking up.
